From Allah We Come and to Allah We Are All Returning

Dear everyone,
Alberta Akbar returned to Allah just hours ago. Her janaza (Islamic funeral prayer) will be held on Saturday, December 29th at 9am at Masjid Abdul Muhsi Khalifah. Masjid Abdul Muhsi Khalifa is located at 120 Madison Street Brooklyn, NY 11216.
I am saddened by Alberta's death, but death is the one certain event in all of our lives. When a Muslim dies we are saddened because we will miss their physical form, but happy that their spirit has been released from its physical restriction forever, and they will be meeting their Beloved. We are also prayerful that their Creator is pleased with them. This is why it is important that many people attend their janaza and pray for their safe passage into the next life.
